  • Maps in a PLOT
    • Adding maps and imagery to an existing plot is easy!
    • The PLOT explain file explains how to plot maps and imagery from the various servers (GoogleMaps, NMS, WMS).
    • WMS Example (Since 2.4.1):
      1. Change your "boring" plot command...
        plot world.prm|cities.prm|ellipse5000.prm
        to
        plot world.prm|{LT=WMS,URL="..."}|cities.prm|ellipse5000.prm
        (You will need to insert the appropriate URL in the space provided, see PLOT explain file for sample URLs.)
      2. In the PLOT window click MMB-->Layers-->WMS and then select the maps and imagery you want to see.
      3. If you run PLOT in the background and configure it the way you like, you can then get the configuration back from it using:
        nM> say "^{reg.plot.layers.wms.config}"
    • For details on directly plotting maps and imagery please see the MAP Option Tree.
